SHEET PAN BBQ CHICKEN & VEGGIES 🍗🌿✨

I've been absolutely loving easy sheet pan dinners lately, especially on those busy weeknights when time is of the essence! Finn and I adore BBQ (and I simply can’t resist sweet potato fries), so this dish has quickly become one of our staples. It's incredibly simple to prepare, packed with flavour, and the best part? The clean-up is a breeze! 🙌

Ingredients:

• 2-3 medium-sized sweet potatoes
• 2 cups brussel sprouts
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 large chicken breast
• 2 tbsp barbecue sauce
• Olive oil spray

Seasoning:

• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tbsp paprika
• 1/2 tbsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tbsp onion powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, adjust to taste)

How to:

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large sheet pan with foil for easy cleanup.
2. Wash the sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts thoroughly. Slice the sweet potatoes into fry shapes, and halve the brussel sprouts.
3. In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and cayenne pepper to create a delicious seasoning blend.
4. Organise the sweet potatoes on one half of the sheet pan and the brussel sprouts on the other. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle half of your seasoning mix over them. Toss everything together to ensure they’re well coated.
5. Bake the vegetables for 15 minutes.
6. While they're baking, slice the chicken breast lengthwise and season it with the remaining spice mixture, making sure to rub it in well.
7. Once the veggies are done, give them a quick toss, then create a space in the centre of the pan for the chicken. Place the chicken in, spray it with olive oil, and pop it back in the oven for another 15 minutes.
8. After this time, give the veggies another toss, then brush the tops of the chicken with barbecue sauce.
9. Return everything to the oven, switch to broil, and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning. You’re aiming for a lovely char on both the chicken and the veggies.
10. Once finished, slice the chicken and dig into this scrumptious meal!

On a chilly evening, there’s nothing quite as comforting as a Chicken Meatball and Roasted Vegetable Sheet Pan Dinner. The aroma wafts through the kitchen as you toss together a medley of vibrant seasonal vegetables — think tender courgettes, sweet bell peppers, and earthy carrots — all glistening with olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh herbs.

Meanwhile, the chicken meatballs, lightly seasoned with garlic and herbs, are nestled among the vegetables, ready to roast to golden perfection. As they cook, the flavours meld beautifully, creating a symphony of taste and texture. Once the timer beeps, you pull the tray from the oven, revealing a hearty, colourful dinner that not only warms the soul but also delights the eye.

Served simply with a wedge of lemon or a dollop of herby yoghurt, this dish embodies the essence of home-cooked comfort, making it a perfect choice for a family gathering or a cosy evening in.

Gather around for a delightful and hassle-free meal with this Easy BBQ Tofu Sheet Pan Dinner. Perfect for those busy weeknights, this vegan dish is as vibrant as it is flavourful. Begin by marinating cubes of firm tofu in a luscious, homemade BBQ sauce that strikes just the right balance between tangy and sweet. While the tofu soaks up those mouthwatering flavours, chop up a medley of seasonal vegetables—think bell peppers, courgettes, and red onions—to add both colour and crunch.

Once everything is prepped, arrange the marinated tofu and vegetables on a generously-sized baking sheet, drizzling them with a touch more BBQ sauce for good measure. Roast in the oven until the tofu turns beautifully golden and the vegetables are tender, allowing the caramelisation to work its magic. The result? A scrumptious, nutrient-rich dinner that’s not just easy to prepare but also a feast for the eyes and the palate. Serve it straight from the oven for a casual yet satisfying dining experience, allowing diners to enjoy the delightful combination of textures and flavours in every bite. Enjoy your plate of goodness, guilt-free and deliciously vegan!
